We currently run 3 sides linked to age at U18, U16 and U14. All these sides are entered into the respective Mercian Leagues, and continue to develop the Youth from the grounding they have in our mini hockey teams (aged 7 to 13). As with the girls we are pleased to welcome boys to the Club at any age, and are proud that the Club and youth reputation is such that we have a wide geographical hinterland.
We also enter an U16 and U18 team in the England Hockey Indoor Competitions where our U18 side has been particularly successful and in 2010 won the inaugural. Additionally we enter the England Hockey (EH) Cup at U18 and U16 level, with the U18s reaching the National Finals in 2009 and 2010.
Coaching is available for all the Boys Colts on a Thursday evening between 7.00p.m. and 8.00p.m. These sessions are staffed by fully qualified coaches. We also have a full communication line between the Colts Coaches and the respective adult team Captains to ensure the Colts develop through the adult sides at an appropriate time. At this stage the Colts are also encouraged to train with their respective adult teams.
Many of our players have gone on to be involved in Junior Development Centres, Junior Academy Centres and have, in some cases, been part of the Saxon Tigers teams where some have gone on to achieve international honours.
Players of all standards are welcome as our underlying objective is that each and every one of the Colts enjoys their hockey - please accept this as an open invitation to come and see us.
